wow. grave digger is back in oakland this weekend as monster jam returns to the coliseum. fan favorite, six tons of pure power. gigantic wheels and weight distribution that keeps this upright. the driver charlie took us for a spin. that's fun. have a great weekend, everybody. i'm larry beil. >> the trucks definitely make me smile. getting a check now of the bay area forecast with meteorologist lisa argen. good morning, lisa. hey, kate, dpoerng to you we have a little fog on the coast. also here in the north bay. north of mount too many cold around there. it's drying out in the atmosphere next several days allowing for chillier numbers to start our mornings. but that's not until we go back to work next week. in the meantime we are a little bit milder this afternoon.

but you're probably wondering about the rain where has it been? will we see any? we have had weak system grazing parts of the north bay. and we sit well below where we should for mid-february. only 66% of normal in santa rosa. 57% of normal san francisco. and we go down the line 41% of average for san jose. it has been almost the driest february we have seen since we kept records. but 1864, no rain fell at all for the month of february. and we could tie that record, although it's looking likely the third week of february we could see a pattern change. that's coming up. actually by the end of the third week. so we'll see -- it's not a lot of rain. it won't help us out in the deficit department. but it's something. and as we look at the golden gate bridge you can see a little bit of fog there. a dryer condition arriving on the heels of the gusty offshore winds for late sunday into the holiday. president's day on monday. it's all due to a weak weather

system to the north that's sliding down to the east of us, and that has been the setup when they setup east we get the offshore flow. the wind flow from higher pressure to lower pressure. and the severe always trying to equalize, balance out and that's why we get the wind backup looking live outside from the east bay hills camera you notice it's clear. looking at temperatures from the upper 40s. redwood city and gilroy 46 on the coast with a little bit of fog and another vantage point, haze here. 35 santa rosa. petaluma at 38. napa 39. elsewhere about 40 by the delta. and looking at current numbers on the chilly side out there. how much caller than we were yesterday? about 10 to 12 degrees cooler. you can see the fog moving to napa. 3/4 of a mile visibility. petaluma can't see anything at all. it has been improving around half moon bay. so looking at our forecast highlights, milder today, breezy and cooler sunday continuing to president's day.

the gusty winds north and east bay hills. no advisories we shouldn't see the wind we saw last weekend and looking at the spring-like weather to next we can. meaning no rain. looking at the highs for sunday, a little bit cooler in san francisco. but still the 60s, 70s arrive on monday. tuesday, we're still above average, in the mid-60s. and looking at the rainfall potential over the next ten days, yeah, not much happening here in northern california. highs today 63 in oakland. 67 in livermore and san jose. and some clouds tonight with the weak front in the 40s. the accuweather seven-day forecast, we're sunny today. warmer than we will be tomorrow, a little breezy. then you notice the gusty winds, higher elevations monday. big recovery in the afternoon with highs in the upper 60s to low 70s the rest of the week. >> i know we want rain. but there is nothing we can do about it. lets just enjoy the 70 next weekend, right. >> yeah a lot of people are. >> i will be thanks. lisa. when chinese and other asian

cultures lion dance is traditionally performed to bring good luck and frrn. it's of course typically performed during the lunar new year celebrations. and one of the few remaining schools still dedicated to reaching the dance is actually right in the bay area. >> the fire crackers scares away the evil spirits and brings the good spirits with the red papers. somewhat close to red carpet. lion dance represents the time when villagers had evil spirits wandering through the village terrorizing things and created the lion costume when they created these costume to scare away the bad spirits. a lot of the traditions are being withdrawn so this is important. the young's white crane has been around now 50 years. and the main goal is to build brotherhood, keep traditions

alive and share our art with the entire world to know where you came from. that's a big sense of our team.. it's actually quite rare to see the schools around san francisco. there used to be over 50 schools within chinatown alone. now there is only about five or six. the traditions you learn within this lion dance team can be carried on many years. helping me keep my traditions and it will help me learn a lot about my culture's history. i've been enjoyed this since i was a little kid, maybe even like 4 years old. it takes a lot of preparation to become a really good lion dancer. you're going to see a lot of acrobatic skills. we have a saying in the dance community taking ten years of practice to do a 10-minute performance. chinatown is a lot more special because all the traditions and cultures come together. as part of the lunar new year we

were blessing all the stores in chinatown. basically when the lion comes in and cigarettes your store and blesses it, it represents a whole year of prosperity and then wealth. the business doing well and such. it's very exciting when you see the lion come up to you and you get to see the features of how it reacts on the different expressions that can create, happy, scared, mad. >> we have a drum, ccymbals, those are in connection with the heartbeat of the lion. we bring joyous energy that makes me happy to see all the smiling faces i get to perform for. does make me more proud walking the streets. because this is our home base. we share what we have learned from our school. and show everyone we are holding our culture down. it makes me feel like i'm home, we're celebrating at home with

afternoon. in fact milder towards the end of the weekend. the past three weeks have been cooler by the end of the work week. but to you we switch it up. so that could mean we're going to switch it up further into the third week -- we could see rain. we hopefully won't go down the entire month without rain. we'll see. >> looking forward to that, thank you, lisa. thank you for joining us on abc 7 mornings. i'm kate larson with lovely lisa argen. abc 7 news continues at 9:00 a.m. and "good morning america" is next we hope you have a great start to your saturday.
